    Oh yes. Another one.

    How about D'arcy? Can't find one with a watch, does a bracelet count?

    You should never regret (though I'm a bit concerned about Humph's footwear).

    The membership sec. of the Athenaeum will perceive that to be a courageous choice.

    This is what Debbie did on the last day of the seventies:

    Well, we've had a couple from Goldfinger... I always enjoyed this photo - from the set of Thunderball, I think. Shame about the lug gap, obv.

    There must be no toleration for a (presumably) anti semite making a directly anti-Semitic post.

    SHAME!

    People here want to debate swear words, but tolerate a directly anti-Semitic post.

    Rule #1: When there is absolutely no defence left for Israel or their actions, one MUST play the anti-semitism card. No exception allowed.

    Isn't your forum name anti-semitic as well? Just asking.

    Fella, I speak German, and have a chocolate labrador.

    This, on the other hand (that's Goebbels in the top pic, for anyone not following this) is anti Semitism, pretending to be political

    You are, indeed a disgrace.

    In Germany, your post would indeed be a criminal offence. I'm not sure in UK. It probably tiptoes along the edge of hate speech.

    Stunned that others look on and think either 1 'wrong forum' or 2 'make joke' in the face of a full on anti-semitic post.

    Moral compass?

    A crminal offence? How so?

    I am not going to continue a political discussion in WT, come over here and let's debate what about this post is racist or anti-semitic.

    You've posted screenshots of the post that was deleted by Eddie.

    Sensible option here would be to delete them yourself.

    Thank you for your input.
    Clearly, some people track Eddie's every move and speak for him. Sadly, I just look at one or two threads that interest me, and don't follow the board politics - small p.

    Actually, no. I didn't screenshot the original post. It's a screenshot of a reply to it; that is still up.

    Easiest clean up is a moderator to click and delete both sides.

    There are no moderators. There is one admin, Eddie. He also happens to be the owner. No need to thank me for my input

    correct, we had to be very careful when entering German or Austrian barracks it was best to not mention nor joke in anyway about certain things.

There is the legal concept of “Volksverhetzung,” the incitement to hatred: Anybody who denigrates an individual or a group based on their ethnicity or religion, or anybody who tries to rouse hatred or promotes violence against such a group or an individual, could face a sentence of up to five years in prison."

    I never knew you had a German law degree, Soapy.

    I'd say the law against Volksverhetzung is only a problem for people who have the habit to rouse hatred or promote violence, I wonder why you have been advised to be careful in that respect?

    The law has been created to be able to prosecute Holocaust deniers and people using Nazi hatespeak. To the best of my knowledge it has never been used for anything else. But I am happy to hear you got away without running into trouble.

    Mielke,If you most know amongst others I was working with the German army and stayed in Austrian barracks as well in transit.

    My knowledge is from out in the real world not emailing CEOs of watch straps who refuse your bullying ways.

    They where exceptionally politically correct, there was no connect or mention to WW2 soldiers or methods.

    We English have a different sense of humour they would not get and so we showed our respect and refrained from Fawlty towers jokes etc.


    I was around to see the first German troops deployed since WW2 when they entered Sarajevo,they where very nervous.

    If social media had been around at that time and you had been on German soil you would have been arrested for the those 2 photos,no doubt.


    Everyone knows you want to or think you do run this place,cant you stop walking around with your glass half empty non stop looking for arguments and trouble?

    It’s noted you get satisfaction out of it,it seems to give worth to your life.



    Try being nice,but if you must get het up try investigating the HOS,Arcan,chetnics,the HVO etc.then you will see some real savagery.


    Again you have derailed another decent thread.


    Peace and love

    John, I find that rather strong for somebody who has been banned from the forum already twice. When I bought a watch from you in 2013 (you were Soapy at the time), you asked me not to mention your name on the forum and not to post a H&V thread. You said that were forced to live undercover because of your history as a secret agent who helped to uncover war crimes in ex-Yugoslavia. The story you were trying to tell me was so crazy that I looked into your history and quickly realised that the reason was that you were banned as ditchdigger and didn't want anybody to see the evidence that you were the same person. But since leopards can't change their spots, you ended up being banned again, this time for threatening somebody with violence.

    Well we all know what happened next: you came right back, this time as bwest76. If I were you, I would keep my head down.

    Peace and love.

    A good thread ruined. Now it's just entertainment value but for the wrong reasons. The Guv'nor has deleted the 'offending' pictures. Can't you guys take the hint?

    Found another angle, but still can't figure it out.
